Alright guys, sorry for the delay, sometimes life takes no prisoners and one is left being a POW of a war that's not necessarily yours for a while...

Jajaja just wanted to clarify that for the record, no i am not offended, nor was I ever... if i enjoy driving a tractor I'm not going to stop loving it because u guys think it's a piece of ... same goes for my mustang...

Nonetheless, I am back to restoring the beast... so I did some digging, it is an 86 GT (no bueno about the title of the thread but o well) with a 302 engine...

i had an oil leak in the front seal, got that bad boy replaced and made some changes, here are the pics, let me know what u guys think...

Will it be worth it to get a turbo kit?

I think it's pretty clean. That wouldn't even qualify as POS in my book.


However, before considering a turbo, I'd address some minor things like why there is an electronic advance distributor on there rather than vacuum. I think you might be leaving a lot of power on the table without any timing advance
